Section R. 393.18 - Commission responsibilities; vending facility site; equipmentRule 18. The commission shall do all of the following:
(a) Determine if a potential site is suitable for a vending facility. In a building where more than 1 vending facility exists, the commission may merge the facilities into a single vending facility. Facility merging may occur when 1 of the vending facilities is vacated and has not been awarded to another licensee after being on the bid line for 2 or more weeks. Under these circumstances, applicable additional licensee training requirements shall be waived for a period to be determined by the commission board, with the active participation of the committee. The commission shall determine, with the active participation of the committee, whether a potential location is suitable for operation as a vending facility or as a satellite. The criterion for determining if a potential location is suitable for operation as a vending facility is that the potential site's net annual income is expected to be 120% of the current federal minimum wage, based upon a 40-hour workweek.(b) List and assign priority to suggested renovations. All renovation or remodeling activities are subject to the availability of funds. The commission shall make all final renovation decisions with input from the committee.(c) The commission shall determine the equipment needs of each vending facility and furnish each vending facility with adequate equipment suitable to the needs of the vending facility.(d) Maintain, or cause to be maintained, all vending facility equipment in good repair and cosmetically appealing condition and replace, or cause to be replaced, worn-out or obsolete equipment as required to ensure the continued and successful operation of the facility. (2) The commission may authorize the lease of equipment for a vending facility. The cost of the lease shall be paid from the proceeds of the facility. A vending facility agreement signed by the licensee shall constitute informed consent to lease equipment. By signing the agreement, the licensee consents to all terms and conditions of the lease and accepts responsibility for the lease.(3) Only the commission may transfer equipment between licensees or facilities. Equipment shall only be used in the assigned vending facility.(4) Bill identifiers or other personal equipment transfers with the licensee to whom the identifier or other personal equipment is assigned. When a licensee leaves the program, the bill identifier or other personal equipment reverts to the commission.Mich. Admin. Code R. 393.18
